CHICAGO, November Louis
Lingg was defiant and sullen this
morning. He put on his Oldest suit
of clothes and put his feet upon his
little iron cot, and began to read a
paper. He was restless, and every
few minutes would turn his head
around and stare through the grated
door with wild look. None Of the
Anarchists were let out of their cell
this morning, and Jailor Foltz says
they won't be to-day. Mrs. Schwab,
Mrs. Engel and Mrs. Parsons came to
see their husbands, but the best they
could do was to call out "Gocd morn
ing" and leave papers. No packages
OF any sort were allowed to go in.
NINA CALLS.
Nina Van Zandt was there. "Good
morning." she called out to Spies.
"Good morning." he returned. and
then came the end of the dialogue
between them. She wrote note
which the janitor read and sent up to
Spies. All the mail was broken and
examined for the first time since their
imprisonment, and kilograms were
also torn open and read. Private
communication with their friends is
stopped and will continue to be until
the day of execution.
THE ATTORNEYS ARRIVE.
Captain Black and Moses Solomon
came to the Jail at 10 o'clock and
talked with each of their clients at
their cell doors. They cay the find
ing of the bomb in Lingg's cell will
not change any plans for the defense.
MRS. PARSONS DIsaUsTED.
Mrs. Parsons has at last abandoned
hope. This evening she said: "My
husband is dead to me. l return home
to my children to mourn for him. l
spoke goodbye to him for the last
time this afternoon, for l never will
cross the threshold OF the Jail again to
be insulted and humiliated."
ENGEL'S DOSE.
Engel to-day told DR.. Gray, the Jail
physician, that on Saturday he had
taken sixteen morphine pills which
had been on his person since the trial,
but they had no effect, and that night
he also drank five or six teaspoonfuls
OF laudanum. DIR. Gray said that the
only explanation of the mans being
alive was that the morphine pills had
lost their strength in the year and a
half Engel had carried them, and the
laudanum was probably purchased in
some cheap drug store, as 1t was adul-
terated and quite weak.
PROVED TO BE DYNAMITE.
Sheriff Metzen this morning said !:
"There is no doubt as to the nature OF
the stuff found in Lingg's bombs.
Part of the filling has been taken out
of couple OF the pipes and exploded,
and it has been found to be the
strongest kind Of dynamite"
THE TIDE HAS TURNED.
The amnesty people have their
tables on the street again this morn
ing, but there has been less disposi-
tion on the part of the people to sign
the petition than on Saturday, and but
few names have been secured.
MORE BOMBS FOUND.
1t is reported that the police have
discovered eleven dynamite bombs
concealed in the house of an Anar-
chist. The police were working on
the case all day yesterday and have
kept the discovery very quiet. When
it became known it caused great ex-
citement in the vicinity of the jail.
A FALSE ALARM.
1t transpires that the alleged dyna-
mite bombs found in the Anarchists g
house in the northwest part OF the city
to-day were nothing but empty gun
cartridge shells.
